Definitions
- the present invention relates to a vehicle brake system according to the preamble of claim 1, see e.g. document DE-A-19 930 561.
- Document DE-A-3 441 103 states that two wheel speed sensors are attached can be used to detect a defective pulse from an asynchronous machine.
- ABS systems and anti-skid systems the brake pressures on individual wheels or Adjust the axles of the vehicle so that the wheels lock or wheel sets prevented and the braking distance is minimized.
- a brake pressure control is required at the ' individual wheels or axles existing slip values, which from the respective wheel speeds and the actual Vehicle speed can be determined.
- Wheel speed sensors are provided, being from the individual Wheel speeds are an approximation of the actual vehicle speed is calculated, which is referred to below as the "reference speed” referred to as.
- ABS or anti-skid systems are usually single-channel built up, i.e. the wheel speed is per wheel or per wheel group detected by a single wheel speed sensor. If a pulse generator, i.e. a wheel speed sensor fails, that is or are the assigned wheels "unprotected", i.e. they can no longer be regulated according to the wheel speed.
- the object of the invention is to provide a brake system which regarding the determination of the actual vehicle speed is optimized and even if a sensor fails no bike leaves unprotected.
- the basic principle of the invention consists in a brake system a brake electronics and connected wheel speed sensors in that each wheel to be monitored or each monitoring wheel group assigned at least two wheel sensors are.
- All existing in the vehicle Wheel sensors constantly monitored.
- the actual Vehicle speed becomes approximate reference speed however at any time only on one of them "Oriented" wheel speed signals recorded wheel sensors.
- Which of the existing wheel speed sensors for the reference speed is currently to be regarded as authoritative, according to the invention depending on the current driving condition and determined at least one predetermined speed criterion.
- the invention thus creates an ABS or anti-skid system with fault tolerance against failure of a speed sensor.
- the reference speed with the vehicle braked at the second highest wheel speed oriented can also be provided be that when the vehicle is braked, first of all "speed pairs" the minimum speed of the wheel speed sensors assigned to each other is determined. The reference speed will be then at the current maximum of these minimum speeds oriented.
- the detection of the wheel speed signals can either by a only control unit or alternatively to several Control units can be divided if e.g. the number of available Inputs from a control unit are not sufficient.
- the wheel speed signals are divided into several control units between the control units exchanged via a data bus.
- all wheel speed signals through monitoring electronics be subjected to a plausibility check. If for a Wheel speed signal an error is detected or if a wheel speed signal is considered implausible, which e.g. through a Sensor failure or due to sensor signal peaks due to external electromagnetic interference fields can be caused, then after a corresponding "error disclosure time" (time until Error is detected) this wheel speed signal no longer in the Determination of the reference speed and also no longer in the regulation of the braking or driving force of the assigned Rades or the wheel group included. In such a case then only the second "channel", i.e. the assigned other wheel speed sensor evaluated.
- the invention is therefore based on the approach that the electronics, but the "periphery”, i.e. especially the sensors is the main source of error. Because sensors fall considerably more often than the brake electronics themselves Difference to the above DE 39 31 313 A1 leaves the invention the "idea of the 2-channel nature of the reference speed", according to which a “separate" for each wheel or wheel group Reference speed is determined.
- a "double”, i.e. Really redundant wheel speed detection provided.
- a single mistake a sensor does not affect the entire brake control of the vehicle, because besides the faulty one intact speed information of the "affected" wheel or the wheel group concerned is present.
- a key point of the invention is that described above "Selection Logic”.
- the selection logic enables fast and easy decision which of two are assigned to each other Sensors from a security or availability point of view provides the "more accurate or more realistic" signal. So can very fast, i.e. during an error detection time that sensor of a sensor pair are "discarded", the inclusion of which has an adverse effect on the regulatory objective, for example, its inclusion in the reference speed formation adversely affect driving safety would.
- a single sensor can determine the reference speed So do not influence so that all or part of the Vehicle brakes are erroneously "braked".
- the individual brake pressure control is from an individual error of a sensor affected wheel as a rule unlimited possible. If the faulty sensor detects after the error detection time has elapsed automatically accessed the intact sensor which of the Logic for this bike is always available here, so that no loss of controllability accepted Need to become. Before the error detection time expires or at Errors where it cannot be decided which of the two different sensors is disturbed, will be accordingly of the criteria explained above is either a decision in favor of driving safety or in favor of availability met. When deciding in favor of driving safety the sensor is considered “valid", the lower one Wheel slip, i.e. which indicates less braking. At a The sensor is considered a decision in favor of availability viewed as "valid" indicating the greater wheel slip, i.e. which indicates greater braking of the wheel or the group of wheels.
- the reference speed determination is based according to the invention on a larger number of sensor signals, what the error safety or the detectability of errors improved.
- the first bogie 2 are the two wheel axles 4, 5 and the second bogie 3 assigned to both wheel axles 6, 7.
- the wheel axis 4 is kinematic coupled to the wheel axle 5, which is shown here only by a schematic shown push rod is indicated.
- the wheel axles 4, So 5 have the same actual wheel speed.
- the wheel axles 4, 5 and Wheel axles 6, 7 thus each form a "wheel group" with the same actual wheel speed.
- the wheel speeds of the wheel axles 4-7 are assigned by Wheel speed sensors 8-11 sensed.
- the one from the Wheel speed sensors 8-11 are delivered wheel speed signals evaluated by a control unit 12 which brakes the Controlled bogies 2 and 3 accordingly.
- the wheel speed sensors should be 8, 9 and 10, 11 each deliver identical signals. by virtue of of sensor malfunctions or external interference, e.g. electromagnetic interference fields, the sensor pairs 8, 9 or 10, 11, however, differ from each other.
- current driving condition i.e. whether the vehicle is braked or is unbraked, can be based on a speed criterion in each case one sensor from the sensor groups to be regarded as valid 8, 9 or 10, 11 can be selected.
- the reference speed oriented to that of the wheel speed sensors 8-11 which is the second highest wheel speed displays.
- Sensor pairs 8, 9 and 10, 11 the sensor with the Minimum speed can be selected. From the two Minimum speed sensors can then determine the maximum speed selected to determine the reference speed (min-max selection).
- the reference speed can based on the second lowest of the wheel speed sensors 8-11 measured wheel speed can be determined. alternative this can be done by first selecting a maximum of the two speed pairs to be hit. Finally, from the two Maximum speeds the smaller for determining the Reference speed can be used (max-min selection).
- the brake pressure control on the wheel axles 4-7 can be done accordingly the security or availability criteria explained above respectively.
- the measured wheel speed signals vi are supplied to three blocks, namely a plausibility check 13, an algorithm 14 for calculating the reference speed v ref and a control algorithm 15 for controlling the drive / braking force z i of an individual wheel or a group of wheels.
- the plausibility algorithm 13 makes a "rough selection”.
- a reference speed v ref is formed from the wheel speed signals v i in accordance with the driving condition and speed criteria explained above.
- the reference speed calculation v ref is always "oriented" to a single wheel speed signal. "Orientation” means that the reference speed is not necessarily set equal to the currently decisive wheel speed signal, but that the wheel speed signal is filtered or smoothed if necessary in order to obtain a "smooth" or as realistic a speed curve as possible, which is as good as possible actual vehicle speed is approximated.
- the control algorithm 15 determines the wheel slip occurring on the individual wheels or wheel groups, taking into account the wheel speed signals v i and the reference speed, and controls the drive or braking forces as a function thereof.
- Fig. 3 shows a schematic embodiment of the anti-skid or anti-skid system of a 4-axle vehicle, in which, in contrast to FIG. 1, the axes 4-7 in terms of speed are not linked.
- the speed detection is here divided into two “assemblies", namely the control unit 12 and an expansion module 16, which is connected via a data bus 17 communicate with each other. That is, part of the Wheel speed signals are immediately sent to the control unit 12 and other part of the wheel speed signals of the expansion module 16 fed. The wheel speed signals are from the expansion module 16 sent to the control unit 12.
- the ones explained above Control algorithms are, however, implemented in control unit 12.
- Fig. 4 also shows an embodiment of an anti-skid or anti-skid system for a 4-axle vehicle with independent axles.
- each of the two bogies 2 and 3 is assigned its own control unit 12, 12 'for braking force control.
- wheel speed signals v 1 , v 1 ' , v 2 , v 2 ' are supplied, and in the control device 12 ', wheel speed signals v 3 , v 3' , v 4 , v 4 ' .
- the control units 12, 12 ' use this to calculate brake control signals 18-21 for the axes 4-7.
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Fahrzeugbremsanlage gemäß
dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1, siehe z.B. Dokument
DE-A-19 930 561.
Dokument DE-A-3 441 103 gebt an, daß zwei Raddrehzahlsensoren angebracht
werden können, zur Erfassung einer defekten Impulsgeben einer Asynchronmaschine.The present invention relates to a vehicle brake system according to
the preamble of
Moderne Straßen- und Schienenfahrzeuge sind üblicherweise mit einer Blockierschutzeinrichtung ausgestattet, die bei Straßenfahrzeugen als "ABS-System" und bei Schienenfahrzeugen als "Gleitschutzsystem" bezeichnet wird. ABS-Systeme und Gleitschutzsysteme sollen die Bremsdrücke an einzelnen Rädern bzw. Achsen des Fahrzeuges so regeln, daß ein Blockieren der Räder bzw. Radsätze verhindert und der Bremsweg minimiert wird. Für eine derartige Bremsdruckregelung benötigt man die an den ' einzelnen Rädern bzw. Achsen vorhandenen Schlupfwerte, die aus den jeweiligen Radgeschwindigkeiten und der tatsächlichen Fahrzeuggeschwindigkeit ermittelt werden. Hierzu sind üblicherweise Raddrehzahlsensoren vorgesehen, wobei aus den einzelnen Raddrehzahlen ein Näherungswert für die tatsächliche Fahrzeuggeschwindigkeit berechnet wird, die im folgenden als "Referenzgeschwindigkeit" bezeichnet wird.Modern road and rail vehicles are usually included an anti-lock device fitted to road vehicles as an "ABS system" and as a rail vehicle "Anti-skid system" is called. ABS systems and anti-skid systems the brake pressures on individual wheels or Adjust the axles of the vehicle so that the wheels lock or wheel sets prevented and the braking distance is minimized. For such a brake pressure control is required at the ' individual wheels or axles existing slip values, which from the respective wheel speeds and the actual Vehicle speed can be determined. This is usually done Wheel speed sensors are provided, being from the individual Wheel speeds are an approximation of the actual vehicle speed is calculated, which is referred to below as the "reference speed" referred to as.
Insbesondere bei schlechten Haftwerten zwischen Rad und Fahrbahn beeinflußt die Referenzgeschwindigkeit maßgeblich die Bremskraftregelung an den Rädern. Eine "falsche" Referenzgeschwindigkeit kann also zu Fehlern in der Bremskraftregelung des gesamten Fahrzeuges führen. Für eine gute ABS- bzw. Gleitschutzregelung ist daher eine möglichst exakte Bestimmung der tatsächlichen Fahrzeuggeschwindigkeit, d.h. der Referenzgeschwindigkeit erforderlich. Insbesondere bei Fahrzeugen, die lediglich über ein einziges unabhängiges System zur Bremskraftregelung bei reduziertem Haftwert zwischen Rad und Schiene, sollte daher eine hohe Sicherheit gegenüber Einzelfehlern sichergestellt sein. Especially with poor adhesion values between the bike and the road the reference speed significantly influences the braking force control on the wheels. An "incorrect" reference speed can lead to errors in the braking force control of the whole Vehicle. For good ABS or anti-skid control is therefore an exact determination of the actual Vehicle speed, i.e. the reference speed required. Especially for vehicles that only have a single independent braking force control system reduced adhesion between wheel and rail, should therefore high security against individual errors can be ensured.
Aus der DE 39 31 313 A1 ist ein Antiblockiersystem für ein Motorrad bekannt, bei dem dem Vorderrad und dem Hinterrad jeweils ein Drehzahlsensor zugeordnet ist. Zur Bestimmung der Radschlüpfe werden hier für das Vorderrad und das Hinterrad jeweils eine der tatsächlichen Fahrzeuggeschwindigkeit angenäherte Referenzgeschwindigkeit ermittelt.From DE 39 31 313 A1 an anti-lock braking system for a Motorbike known, in which the front wheel and the rear wheel a speed sensor is assigned. To determine the Wheel slips are used here for the front wheel and the rear wheel each approximate the actual vehicle speed Reference speed determined.
Üblicherweise sind ABS- bzw. Gleitschutzsysteme einkanalig aufgebaut, d.h. die Raddrehzahl wird pro Rad bzw. pro Radgruppe durch einen einzigen Raddrehzahlsensor erfaßt. Wenn ein Impulsgeber, d.h. ein Raddrehzahlsensor ausfällt, ist das bzw. sind die zugeordneten Räder "ungeschützt", d.h. sie können nicht mehr entsprechend der Raddrehzahl geregelt werden.ABS or anti-skid systems are usually single-channel built up, i.e. the wheel speed is per wheel or per wheel group detected by a single wheel speed sensor. If a pulse generator, i.e. a wheel speed sensor fails, that is or are the assigned wheels "unprotected", i.e. they can no longer be regulated according to the wheel speed.
Wenn von einem defekten Raddrehzahlsensor eine "falsche" Radgeschwindigkeit geliefert wird und in die Referenzgeschwindigkeit eingeht, besteht die Gefahr, daß an allen Achsen irrtümlich der Bremsdruck verringert wird bzw. daß an allen Achsen die Traktion fehlerhaft bzw. abgeregelt wird.If from a defective wheel speed sensor a "wrong" Wheel speed is delivered and in the reference speed incoming, there is a risk that on all axes the brake pressure is erroneously reduced or that at all Axes the traction is faulty or limited.
Damit fehlerhafte Raddrehzahlsignale den Referenzgeschwindigkeitswert möglichst nicht verfälschen, weisen aus anmelderinternem Stand der Technik bekannte Algorithmen zur Berrechnung der Referengeschwindigkeit zwar eine "Erkennung" fehlerhafter Signale auf. Eine sichere Erkennung aller möglichen Fehler ist jedoch sehr aufwendig. Außerdem können sich Fehler bereits während der "Fehleroffenbarungszeit" so auf die Berechnung der Referenzgeschwindigkeit auswirken, daß die Bremskraftregelung nachteilig beeinflußt wird.This means that incorrect wheel speed signals set the reference speed value as far as possible not falsify, show from applicant's internal State of the art algorithms for calculating the Reference speed a "detection" incorrect Signals on. A reliable detection of all possible errors is however very expensive. In addition, mistakes can already occur during the "error reporting period" so on the calculation of the Reference speed affect that braking force control is adversely affected.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Bremsanlage zu schaffen, die hinsichtlich der Ermittlung der tatsächlichen Fahrzeuggeschwindigkeit optimiert ist und auch bei Ausfall eines Sensors kein Rad ungeschützt läßt.The object of the invention is to provide a brake system which regarding the determination of the actual vehicle speed is optimized and even if a sensor fails no bike leaves unprotected.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruches 1
gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der
Erfindung sind den Unteransprüchen zu entnehmen.This object is achieved by the features of
Das Grundprinzip der Erfindung besteht bei einer Bremsanlage mit einer Bremselektronik und daran angeschlossenen Raddrehzahlsensoren darin, daß jedem zu überwachenden Rad bzw. jeder zu überwachenden Radgruppe mindestens zwei Radsensoren zugeordnet sind. Während des Betriebs werden sämtliche im Fahrzeug vorhandenen Radsensoren ständig überwacht. Die der tatsächlichen Fahrzeuggeschwindigkeit angenäherte Referenzgeschwindigkeit wird jedoch zu jedem Zeitpunkt stets nur an einem der von den Radsensoren aufgenommenen Raddrehzahlsignale "orientiert". Welcher der vorhandenen Raddrehzahlsensoren für die Referenzgeschwindigkeit momentan als maßgeblich anzusehen ist, wird gemäß der Erfindung in Abhängigkeit vom aktuellen Fahrzustand und mindestens einem vorgegebenen Geschwindigkeitskriterium ermittelt. Die Erfindung schafft somit eine ABS- bzw. Gleitschutzanlage mit Fehlertoleranz gegen Ausfall eines Geschwindigkeitssensors.The basic principle of the invention consists in a brake system a brake electronics and connected wheel speed sensors in that each wheel to be monitored or each monitoring wheel group assigned at least two wheel sensors are. During operation, all existing in the vehicle Wheel sensors constantly monitored. The actual Vehicle speed becomes approximate reference speed however at any time only on one of them "Oriented" wheel speed signals recorded wheel sensors. Which of the existing wheel speed sensors for the reference speed is currently to be regarded as authoritative, according to the invention depending on the current driving condition and determined at least one predetermined speed criterion. The invention thus creates an ABS or anti-skid system with fault tolerance against failure of a speed sensor.
Vereinfacht ausgedrückt wird überprüft, ob das Fahrzeug gerade gebremst bzw. beschleunigt wird oder antriebslos dahinrollt. In Abhängigkeit vom vorliegenden Fahrzustand wird eine der "höheren" gemessenen oder der "niedrigeren" gemessenen Radgeschwindigkeiten der Referenzgeschwindigkeitsermittlung zugrunde gelegt, was noch genauer erläutert wird.Put simply, it is checked whether the vehicle is straight is braked or accelerated or rolls without power. In Depending on the current driving condition, one of the "higher" measured or the "lower" measured wheel speeds the basis of the reference speed determination laid, which is explained in more detail.
Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung wird die Referenzgeschwindigkeit bei gebremstem Fahrzeug an der zweithöchsten Radgeschwindigkeit orientiert. Alternativ dazu kann auch vorgesehen sein, daß bei gebremstem Fahrzeug zunächst aus jedem "Drehzahlpaar" der einander zugeordneten Raddrehzahlsensoren die Minimumgeschwindigkeit ermittelt wird. Die Referenzgeschwindigkeit wird dann an dem momentanen Maximum dieser Minimumgeschwindigkeiten orientiert.According to a development of the invention, the reference speed with the vehicle braked at the second highest wheel speed oriented. Alternatively, it can also be provided be that when the vehicle is braked, first of all "speed pairs" the minimum speed of the wheel speed sensors assigned to each other is determined. The reference speed will be then at the current maximum of these minimum speeds oriented.
Bei nichtgebremstem Fahrzeug, insbesondere bei angetriebenem Fahrzeug (Traktion) kann die Referenzgeschwindigkeit an der zweitniedrigsten Radgeschwindigkeit orientiert werden. Alternativ dazu kann vorgesehen sein, daß bei nichtgebremstem Fahrzeug zunächst aus jedem Drehzahlpaar die Maximumgeschwindigkeit ermittelt wird und daß die Referenzgeschwindigkeit dann am Minimum dieser Maximumgeschwindigkeiten orientiert wird.When the vehicle is not braked, especially when the vehicle is driven Vehicle (traction) can change the reference speed at the second lowest wheel speed. alternative it can be provided that when the vehicle is not braked first the maximum speed from each speed pair is determined and that the reference speed is then on Minimum of these maximum speeds is oriented.
Beim Bremsen ist somit gewährleistet, daß ein störungsbedingt zu hohes Geschwindigkeitssignal die Referenzgeschwindigkeit nicht beeinflußt. Dementsprechend wird bei nichtgebremstem Fahrzeug bzw. im Zustand "Traktion" ein störungsbedingt zu niedriges Radgeschwindigkeitssignal "ausgeblendet".When braking, it is thus ensured that a fault due to high speed signal the reference speed is not affected. Accordingly, when the vehicle is not braked or in the "traction" state, it is too low due to the fault Wheel speed signal "hidden".
Die Erfassung der Raddrehzahlsignale kann entweder durch ein einziges Steuergerät erfolgen oder alternativ dazu auf mehrere Steuergeräte aufgeteilt sein, wenn z.B. die Anzahl der verfügbaren Eingänge eines Steuergeräts nicht ausreicht. Bei einer Aufteilung auf mehrere Steuergeräte werden die Radgeschwindigkeitssignale zwischen den Steuergeräten wechselseitig über einen Datenbus ausgetauscht.The detection of the wheel speed signals can either by a only control unit or alternatively to several Control units can be divided if e.g. the number of available Inputs from a control unit are not sufficient. At a The wheel speed signals are divided into several control units between the control units exchanged via a data bus.
Da gemäß der Erfindung einem Rad bzw. einer Radgruppe zwei
Raddrehzahlsensoren zugeordnet sind, muß auch festgelegt sein,
welcher der beiden Raddrehzahlsensoren für die Bremskraftregelung,
d.h. die ABS- bzw. Gleitschutzregelung und die ASR-Regelung
an dem jeweiligen Rad bzw. der jeweiligen Radgruppe
maßgebend sein soll. Betrachtet man zunächst die ABS- bzw.
Gleitschutzregelung, so kann folgendes vorgesehen sein:
Hinsichtlich der Antriebskraftregelung (ASR- bzw. Schleuderschutzregelung)
eines Rades kann folgendes vorgesehen sein:
Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß sämtliche Raddrehzahlsignale durch eine Überwachungselektronik einer Plausibilitätskontrolle unterzogen werden. Wenn für ein Raddrehzahlsignal ein Fehler erkannt wird bzw. wenn ein Raddrehzahlsignal als unplausibel angesehen wird, was z.B. durch einen Sensorausfall bzw. durch Sensorsignalspitzen infolge externer elektromagnetischer Störfelder bedingt sein kann, dann wird nach einer entsprechenden "Fehleroffenbarungszeit" (Zeitdauer bis der Fehler erkannt wird) dieses Raddrehzahlsignal nicht mehr in die Ermittlung der Referenzgeschwindigkeit und auch nicht mehr in die Regelung der Brems- bzw. Antriebskraft des zugeordneten Rades bzw. der Radgruppe einbezogen. In einem derartigen Fall wird dann nur noch der zweite "Kanal", d.h. der zugeordnete andere Raddrehzahlsensor ausgewertet.According to a development of the invention it is provided that all wheel speed signals through monitoring electronics be subjected to a plausibility check. If for a Wheel speed signal an error is detected or if a wheel speed signal is considered implausible, which e.g. through a Sensor failure or due to sensor signal peaks due to external electromagnetic interference fields can be caused, then after a corresponding "error disclosure time" (time until Error is detected) this wheel speed signal no longer in the Determination of the reference speed and also no longer in the regulation of the braking or driving force of the assigned Rades or the wheel group included. In such a case then only the second "channel", i.e. the assigned other wheel speed sensor evaluated.
Die Erfindung geht also von dem Ansatz aus, daß nicht die Elektronik, sondern die "Peripherie", d.h. insbesondere die Sensorik die Hauptfehlerquelle darstellt. Sensoren fallen nämlich erheblich häufiger aus als die Bremselektronik selbst. Im Unterschied zu der o.g. DE 39 31 313 A1 verläßt die Erfindung den "Gedanken der 2-Kanaligkeit der Referenzgeschwindigkeit", wonach für einzelne Räder bzw. Radgruppen jeweils eine "eigene" Referenzgeschwindigkeit bestimmt wird.The invention is therefore based on the approach that the electronics, but the "periphery", i.e. especially the sensors is the main source of error. Because sensors fall considerably more often than the brake electronics themselves Difference to the above DE 39 31 313 A1 leaves the invention the "idea of the 2-channel nature of the reference speed", according to which a "separate" for each wheel or wheel group Reference speed is determined.
Gemäß der Erfindung ist vielmehr eine "doppelte", d.h. echt redundante Raddrehzahlerfassung vorgesehen. Ein Einzelfehler eines Sensors wirkt sich somit nicht auf die gesamte Bremsregelung des Fahrzeuges aus, weil außer der fehlerhaften noch eine intakte Geschwindigkeitsinformation des "betroffenen" Rades bzw. der betroffenen Radgruppe vorhanden ist.Rather, according to the invention, a "double", i.e. Really redundant wheel speed detection provided. A single mistake a sensor does not affect the entire brake control of the vehicle, because besides the faulty one intact speed information of the "affected" wheel or the wheel group concerned is present.
Ein Kernpunkt der Erfindung ist dabei die oben beschriebene "Auswahllogik". Die Auswahllogik ermöglicht eine schnelle und einfache Entscheidung, welcher von zwei einander zugeordneten Sensoren aus Sicherheits- oder aus Verfügbarkeitsgesichtspunkten das "genauere bzw. realistischere" Signal liefert. Somit kann sehr schnell, d.h. während einer Fehlererkennungszeit schon derjenige Sensor eines Sensorpaares "ausgesondert" werden, dessen Einbeziehung sich ungünstig auf das Regelziel auswirkt, beispielsweise dessen Einbeziehung in die Referenzgeschwindigkeitsbildung sich nachteilig auf die Fahrsicherheit auswirken würde. Ein einzelner Sensor kann die Referenzgeschwindigkeitsermittlung also nicht so beeinflussen, daß alle bzw. ein Teil der Fahrzeugbremsen irrtümlich "entbremst" werden.A key point of the invention is that described above "Selection Logic". The selection logic enables fast and easy decision which of two are assigned to each other Sensors from a security or availability point of view provides the "more accurate or more realistic" signal. So can very fast, i.e. during an error detection time that sensor of a sensor pair are "discarded", the inclusion of which has an adverse effect on the regulatory objective, for example, its inclusion in the reference speed formation adversely affect driving safety would. A single sensor can determine the reference speed So do not influence so that all or part of the Vehicle brakes are erroneously "braked".
Insbesondere ist die individuelle Bremsdruckregelung des von einem Einzelfehler eines Sensors betroffenen Rades in der Regel uneingeschränkt möglich. Wenn der gestörte Sensor ermittelt werden kann, so wird nach Ablauf der Fehler-erkennungszeit automatisch auf den intakten Sensor zugegrif-fen, welcher der Logik für dieses Rad hier immer zur Verfügung steht, so daß keinerlei Einbußen hinsichtlich der Regelbarkeit hingenommen werden müssen. Vor Ablauf der Fehlererkennungszeit bzw. bei Fehlern, bei denen nicht entschieden werden kann, welcher der beiden differierenden Sensoren gestört ist, wird entsprechend der oben erläuterten Kriterien entweder eine Entscheidung zugunsten der Fahrsicherheit oder zugunsten der Verfügbarkeit getroffen. Bei einer Entscheidung zugunsten der Fahrsicherheit wird der Sensor als "gültig" angesehen, der den geringeren Radschlupf, d.h. die geringere Einbremsung anzeigt. Bei einer Entscheidung zugunsten der Verfügbarkeit wird der Sensor als "gültig" angesehen, der den größeren Radschlupf anzeigt, d.h. der eine größere Einbremsung des Rades bzw. der Radgruppe anzeigt.In particular, the individual brake pressure control is from an individual error of a sensor affected wheel as a rule unlimited possible. If the faulty sensor detects after the error detection time has elapsed automatically accessed the intact sensor which of the Logic for this bike is always available here, so that no loss of controllability accepted Need to become. Before the error detection time expires or at Errors where it cannot be decided which of the two different sensors is disturbed, will be accordingly of the criteria explained above is either a decision in favor of driving safety or in favor of availability met. When deciding in favor of driving safety the sensor is considered "valid", the lower one Wheel slip, i.e. which indicates less braking. At a The sensor is considered a decision in favor of availability viewed as "valid" indicating the greater wheel slip, i.e. which indicates greater braking of the wheel or the group of wheels.
Gegenüber herkömmlichen Bremssystemen, bei denen jeweils nur ein Raddrehzahlsensor zur Bestimmung der Radgeschwindigkeiten vorgesehen ist, basiert die Referenzgeschwindigkeitsermittlung gemäß der Erfindung auf einer größeren Anzahl von Sensorsignalen, was die Fehlersicherheit bzw. die Erkennbarkeit von Fehlern verbessert.Compared to conventional braking systems, where only one Wheel speed sensor for determining the wheel speeds is provided, the reference speed determination is based according to the invention on a larger number of sensor signals, what the error safety or the detectability of errors improved.

Die Radgeschwindigkeiten der Radachsen 4-7 werden durch zugeordnete
Raddrehzahlsensoren 8-11 sensiert. Die von den
Raddrehzahlsensoren 8-11 gelieferten Raddrehzahlsignale werden
von einem Steuergerät 12 ausgewertet, welches die Bremsen der

Wheel speed sensors 8-11 sensed. The one from the
Wheel speed sensors 8-11 are delivered wheel speed signals
evaluated by a
Bei ordnungsgemäßer Bremsanlage müßten die Raddrehzahlsensoren 8, 9 bzw. 10, 11 jeweils identische Signale liefern. Aufgrund von Sensorstörungen bzw. externen Störeinflüssen, wie z.B. elektromagnetischen Störfeldern, können die Sensorpaare 8, 9 bzw. 10, 11 jedoch voneinander abweichen. In Abhängigkeit vom jeweiligen Fahrzustand, d.h. ob das Fahrzeug gebremst oder ungebremst ist, kann anhand eines Geschwindigkeitskriteriums jeweils ein als gültig anzusehender Sensor aus den Sensorgruppen 8, 9 bzw. 10, 11 ausgewählt werden.If the brake system is correct, the wheel speed sensors should be 8, 9 and 10, 11 each deliver identical signals. by virtue of of sensor malfunctions or external interference, e.g. electromagnetic interference fields, the sensor pairs 8, 9 or 10, 11, however, differ from each other. Depending on current driving condition, i.e. whether the vehicle is braked or is unbraked, can be based on a speed criterion in each case one sensor from the sensor groups to be regarded as valid 8, 9 or 10, 11 can be selected.
Bei gebremstem Fahrzeug kann beispielsweise die Referenzgeschwindigkeit an demjenigen der Raddrehzahlsensoren 8-11 orientiert werden, welcher die zweithöchste Radgeschwindigkeit anzeigt. Alternativ dazu kann aus jedem der beiden hier vorgesehenen Sensorpaare 8, 9 bzw. 10, 11 derjenige Sensor mit der Minimalgeschwindigkeit ausgewählt werden. Aus den beiden Minimalgeschwindigkeitssensoren kann dann die Maximalgeschwindigkeit zur Ermittlung der Referenzgeschwindigkeit ausgewählt werden (Min-Max-Auswahl).When the vehicle is braked, for example, the reference speed oriented to that of the wheel speed sensors 8-11 which is the second highest wheel speed displays. Alternatively, either of the two provided here can be used Sensor pairs 8, 9 and 10, 11 the sensor with the Minimum speed can be selected. From the two Minimum speed sensors can then determine the maximum speed selected to determine the reference speed (min-max selection).
Bei nichtgebremstem Fahrzeug kann die Referenzgeschwindigkeit auf der Basis der zweitniedrigsten von den Raddrehzahlsensoren 8-11 gemessenen Radgeschwindigkeit ermittelt werden. Alternativ dazu kann zunächst eine Maximalauswahl aus den beiden Drehzahlpaaren getroffen werden. Schließlich kann aus den beiden Maximalgeschwindigkeiten die kleinere zur Ermittlung der Referenzgeschwindigkeit herangezogen werden (Max-Min-Auswahl).When the vehicle is not braked, the reference speed can based on the second lowest of the wheel speed sensors 8-11 measured wheel speed can be determined. alternative this can be done by first selecting a maximum of the two speed pairs to be hit. Finally, from the two Maximum speeds the smaller for determining the Reference speed can be used (max-min selection).
Die Bremsdruckregelung an den Radachsen 4-7 kann entsprechend den oben erläuterten Sicherheits- bzw. Verfügbarkeitskriterien erfolgen.The brake pressure control on the wheel axles 4-7 can be done accordingly the security or availability criteria explained above respectively.

Erfindung implementierten Algorithmen. Die gemessenen Raddrehzahlsignale
vi werden drei Blöcken zugeführt, nämlich einer
Plausibilitätskontrolle 13, einem Algorithmus 14 zur Berechnung
der Referenzgeschwindigkeit vref sowie einem Regelalgorithmus 15
zur Regelung der Antriebs-/Bremskraft zi eines einzelnen Rades
oder einer Radgruppe.2 shows in simplified form the algorithms implemented in a control device according to the invention. The measured wheel speed signals vi are supplied to three blocks, namely a
Der Plausibilitätsalgorithmus 13 trifft eine "Grobauswahl". The
Hierbei wird überprüft, ob einzelne Raddrehzahlsignale vi überhaupt nicht als realistisch in Frage kommen und ausgesondert werden müssen.Here it is checked whether individual wheel speed signals v i are not realistic at all and have to be separated out.
Aus den Raddrehzahlsignalen vi wird gemäß den oben erläuterten Fahrzustands- und Geschwindigkeitskriterien eine Referenzgeschwindigkeit vref gebildet. Die Referenzgeschwindigkeitsberechnung vref wird dabei stets an einem einzigen Raddrehzahlsignal "orientiert". "Orientieren" bedeutet, daß die Referenzgeschwindigkeit nicht unbedingt gleich dem momentan maßgebenden Raddrehzahlsignal gesetzt wird, sondern daß das Raddrehzahlsignal ggf. gefiltert bzw. geglättet in die Referenzgeschwindigkeit eingeht, um einen "glatten" bzw. möglichst realistischen Geschwindigkeitsverlauf zu erhalten, der möglichst gut der tatsächlichen Fahrzeuggeschwindigkeit angenähert ist.A reference speed v ref is formed from the wheel speed signals v i in accordance with the driving condition and speed criteria explained above. The reference speed calculation v ref is always "oriented" to a single wheel speed signal. "Orientation" means that the reference speed is not necessarily set equal to the currently decisive wheel speed signal, but that the wheel speed signal is filtered or smoothed if necessary in order to obtain a "smooth" or as realistic a speed curve as possible, which is as good as possible actual vehicle speed is approximated.
Der Regelalgorithmus 15 ermittelt unter Berücksichtigung der
Raddrehzahlsignale vi und der Referenzgeschwindigkeit die an den
einzelnen Rädern bzw. Radgruppen auftretenden Radschlüpfe und
regelt in Abhängigkeit davon die Antriebs- bzw. Bremskräfte.The

nicht miteinander gekoppelt sind. Die Drehzahlerfassung ist hier
auf zwei "Baugruppen" aufgeteilt, nämlich auf das Steuergerät 12
und eine Erweiterungsbaugruppe 16, die über einen Datenbus 17
miteinander in Verbindung stehen. Das heißt, ein Teil der
Raddrehzahlsignale wird unmittelbar dem Steuergerät 12 und ein
anderer Teil der Raddrehzahlsignale der Erweiterungsbaugruppe 16
zugeführt. Von der Erweiterungsbaugruppe 16 werden die Raddrehzahlsignale
zum Steuergerät 12 gesendet. Die oben erläuterten
Regelalgorithmen sind jedoch im Steuergerät 12 implementiert.Fig. 3 shows a schematic embodiment of the anti-skid

are not linked. The speed detection is here
divided into two "assemblies", namely the
